Penn State Garage Services will transition from the Office of Physical Plant to Transportation Services effective Sunday, Aug. 9.

General parking for Penn State summer commencement ceremonies being held at the Bryce Jordan Center will be available at Jordan East and Stadium West.

The FMIS will consolidate vehicle, maintenance, fuel and cost data into a single platform, giving fleet managers greater visibility into vehicle performance, maintenance schedules, and operating expenses.

RIDEpass is a program for faculty, staff and graduate students that provides access to all regular CATABUS routes at a reduced price.

Parking will be available across from Medlar Field in the Jordan East lot for $5.35, payable via HONK (zone PSUCR).

Transit service will be reduced, but additional parking access will be available for core faculty/staff permit holders.

The addition of hourly parking is intended to better serve campus visitors who need short-term parking near central academic, administrative, and residence hall destinations.

A Penn State graduate with a degree in Integrative Arts, Sean spent 16 years at Centre Area Transportation Authority (CATA), where he managed transportation operations and worked closely with a large team of operators to deliver safe and reliable public transit.

All students, regardless of semester standing, are eligible to register for summer parking. Graduate students not enrolled in classes are also eligible to purchase a student parking permit.

Parking revenue is used to provide various campus transportation programs and services, to include campus transit, the RIDEpass reduced-fare mass transit pass program for employees and graduate students, campus bicycle facilities, and the Spin E-Bike Share Program.
